Event Profile
Guys do it, nice girls do it, so say it out loud: Masturbation. Come As You Are encourages everyone to touch themselves for a good cause. The fifth annual Masturbate-A-Thon is a day of solo sex to raise funds for women's health organizations. The event will be held on the honour system and you decide how long you want to masturbate in the privacy of your own home. The top fundraisers in each category will win some wonderful prizes.
The event will take place on May 24. Pledge forms will be available on the Come As You Are Website www.comeasyouare.com beginning April 15.
Why Masturbate?
It feels good.
It helps maintain good pelvic blood flow and strong pc muscles.
It's safe sex.
You don't have to worry if your partner came.
You learn what's best for your pleasure by masturbating, which in turn improves your sex life with your partners.
It's great for stress relief and can help you sleep.
Interesting Masturbatory Facts:
According to Flare magazine's April 2002 issue, in the 1800s, physicians induced orgasm, considering it a valid treatment for hysteria because they thought the condition was triggered by sexual deprivation. Eventually, a doctor invented the vibrator so women could "treat" themselves at home. Yet in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, western doctors blamed masturbation for everything from mental illness and tuberculosis to loose morality. Treatments varied from spiked rings to prevent nocturnal erections in boys and clitoridectomies (removal of the clitoris) for women. An orgasm is considered a good way to temporarily relieve menstrual cramps in women and stimulate the prostate gland in men, reducing the incidence of prostate infections.
I Came For A Cause:
Come As You Are began participating in the Masturbate-a-Thon with Good Vibrations, Toys in Babeland, and Grand Opening in 1998. Since then over $20,000 (us$) has been raised for deserving non-profit organizations that promote sexual health. This year, proceeds go to Voices of Positive Women.
Founded in 1991, Voices of Positive Women is a community based, member driven agency which provides free and confidential support and advocacy to HIV positive women. They offer community outreach, advocacy, counselling, peer education, and a wide range of other services to women living with HIV.
